President of Exxon Mobil is a brother?!

I've been doing checks on Wikipedia to see if every time a wikipedia page comes up on google, it is wikilinked to the main APO wikipedia page. As such I've hit some rather odd links including one claiming that Nick Cannon joined APO at a local community college. Having checked with the APO national Office, I'm deleteing that one from Nick Cannon's Wikipedia page. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Cannon)


However I recently found another one for Rex W. Tillerson, President and CEO of Exxon-Mobil that claimed that he was a brother of Alpha Phi Omega. This one seems to have a higher probability of being correct. The IP address that added this fact to Mr. Tillerson also added to Dolph Briscoe's page that in addition to being a brother of APO, he had been in Alpha Rho chapter, which is correct given that he went to UT-Austin.

Mr. Tillerson also went to UT-Austin. I looked in the National Membership database and there *is* a Rex Tillerson who joined Alpha Rho chapter in Spring of 1971. Given that Rex W. Tillerson started at UT Austin in 1970 and graduated in 1975, I think this is *very* likely.

Info from

and the Fraternity membership database (If you are a brother and don't know how to get to this send me a PM.)
